National Ground Water Association

The National Ground Water Association (NGWA), headquartered in Westerville, Ohio, is a membership-based nonprofit organization.

Founded in 1948, the organization is composed of United States and international groundwater professionals in four membership divisions: water well contractors, scientists and engineers, manufacturers, and suppliers. The group, that includes hydrogeologists, promotes responsible water use.[1]

NGWA provides short courses, conferences, and webinars related to the science of groundwater and the groundwater industry to both its members and the general public. It publishes two peer-reviewed journals: Groundwater and Groundwater Monitoring & Remediation, as well as a trade publication, Water Well Journal. The association also offers voluntary certification programs.

NGWA also operates a separate nonprofit foundation, the National Ground Water Research and Educational Foundation.

The organization hosts Groundwater Week to bring together professionals from within the groundwater industry.[2]
